”The princess is being unreasonable!” Imperial Physician Wang from the Stage of History said.
”You're the one who is unreasonable. What does His Highness mean by that, why don't you tell it for this old man?”
”This memorial archway was passed down from our ancestors and is meant to reward those fierce maidservants for keeping their chastity. This, the princess will erase immediately, and after this, this atmosphere …”
”What do you care about being a lady?” ”It's not like I'm forcing them to remarry. If they want to marry, then marry. If they don't want to marry, then just guard! Didn't they already defend this for thirty years? Does the princess still have a reward? ” Actually, the princess' meaning was very clear. It was fine to be chaste, but to not use the word chaste to argue, that was to say, to not show off.
In the imperial court, everyone was in a state of disarray. Emperor Qinghe waved his hand. ”We, the emperor, find it difficult to make decisions with all sorts of reasons. But I am thinking of the words the grand imperial daughter said to me last night. Say them to all.”
As soon as he finished speaking the words of the grand daughter about the evil deeds of Lady Gu in his previous life and about the fact that he had just reincarnated into her current life, the imperial court fell completely silent.
”At the age of eleven, when the princess is so young, all the officials have daughters and sisters as well. Think about it, an eleven year old child, from then on, he will be locked up, locked up, and only let her stay in a room. ”Tell me, what kind of a crime would sentence you to thirty years?”
The Minister of Justice knelt down, not daring to answer, and even Emperor Qinghe didn't care. As matters stood, there was no point in speaking any further.
”Your Majesty! ”The pain of chastity …”
”There's no need to talk about it, it's extremely difficult and arduous. I know, and I know as well. If it was voluntary, I would have done it myself. What does it have to do with anyone else?” If it was not voluntary, then the family of his family members would have forced him to do so. This was a heinous crime! Xue Lang, do you have a daughter in your family?! ”

When he got home, he was still angry. He went back to the study and took a breath of air. After drinking most of the tea, he stood up and walked around the study.
The servant reported from the entrance, ”Mr. Gan requests an audience.”
Mr. Gan, dressed in cloth, was smart and reserved. He bowed when he saw Xue Duan De. ”Why are you angry?”
Xue Duan De looked at this Mister Gan as if he was a confidant. ”Mister, you don't know that the princess has gone too far in the court today!” He then explained everything that had happened in the imperial court one by one.
Mr. Gan frowned. He originally wanted to make use of this matter to do some work on the princess' marriage. But since the emperor supported the princess and even the widows of the commoners supported the remarriage, wouldn't the princess be more lenient when choosing her husband?
”A commoner has already been engaged since she was twelve. Is the princess the same age as well?”
Unexpectedly, Mr. Xue Duan De was willing to answer, ”What do you mean, Sir?”
”Dong'ong favors a woman's end. What if the princess' husband dies? The Eastern Elder still didn't understand the meaning behind his Majesty's words? The emperor has chosen the three palaces and six courtyards to visit His Highness. Do you think that His Majesty will allow the princess to have only one husband? ”
Xue Duan De laughed. ”Not one, could it be that you want to choose a few? What did it become? ”
”Not to mention the distance, only the State of Yue has over a hundred Queen Yue faces. As for Empress Dowager Tian, although she's an expensive empress dowager, the palace still has her beloved male pets …”
”Could it be that this move is really that amazing?” He had received five thousand taels of silver from the Gu family, and now he was going to puke it out?
”Even if we can't leave, there are still many benefits. At least, we already know what His Majesty is thinking, so we can act accordingly in the future.”
”We have misjudged His Majesty's intentions, but it is not too late to find out. ”Eunuch, why not …” The rest of the voice gradually died down, and Xue Duan De, who was listening attentively, couldn't help but nod.

The officials thought that Qing He would arrange for the princess to follow up on other court affairs, but they did not expect that after a few days, he would still not speak. The princess also returned to her former taciturn state, making them all think that the princess' argument with the ministers was just a matter of business at first, but in any case, the crowd of officials who had been inspired by her fighting spirit finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Especially when he heard that the Imperial Tutor had aggravated the princess' lessons …
The Imperial Tutor was simply too great. It would be even better if he could teach a lady. Of course, this was completely unrealistic. It was only when those old officials thought about it.
The courtiers knew that they could not return to the past, so a wave of undercurrents surged.
In the past, he could not compare to Imperial Physician Cheng in terms of medical skills, but now that Imperial Physician Cheng was gone, he, Li Shengchun, was the Principal. He was still young, and could still contribute forty to fifty to the country, so thirty-four years was not a problem!
Before Li Yuan could make his move, people from the Eastern Palace came to pass him a message.
The Li Courtyard was filled with money, but they couldn't get anything out of it, so they could only open it. The princess was always healthy, and her safety veins were recorded every five days. Could it be that there was something wrong with the fourth princess? No, the one in charge of the fourth princess' case is Doctor Tu, he is an outstanding doctor, he is almost the same as Li Shengchun, only that his surname is not good, his surname is Tu, and he is also an imperial physician, it is only right for His Majesty to take him as the principal, he should be the one in charge of this institution, haha ~
What was the reason for the princess' summons?
”Eunuch, aiya, Eunuch Li, you did mention something to me!”
